By now, you’ve had some instruction on how to read customer drawings. You’re starting to get an idea of what our customer expects us to deliver. So, how do we know that our product will meet our customer’s specifications? We use micrometers and other measuring instruments to determine if our product is to print.

4. Features of the Micrometer
Body – Houses the components
Splines – Used to measure part
Dial – Used to turn splines
Digital Readout – Indicates reading
Zero Button – Zero’s micrometer
